Learn when in the process your land trust will receive an Additional Information Request (AIR) and how to prepare your best response.
Additional Information Requests (AIR)
Your land trust did it! You registered, completed your pre-application and submitted your main application on time. Your decision should be coming any day now...right?
If you've been through the first-time accreditation or renewal, you might already know that submitting the main application is not the end of the application process story. If the Commission, after reviewing your application, needs additional information or finds that corrective action is needed before a final decision can be made, your land trust will receive an AIR.
First-Time AIR Path
After submitting your land trust's application, your assigned Commission staff member and one or more volunteer commissioners form your review team. They read your application in detail.
Applicant Conference Call
At this step in the first-time accreditation process, the review team will lead one mandatory phone call with your organization to give you the opportunity to answer questions the review team have about your application.
The Applicant Conference Call will be scheduled in advance at a date and time that works for all parties.
Your organization will receive a detailed call agenda in the AMS approximately one week prior to the scheduled call detailing the questions the review team would like to discuss.
Your organization is welcome and encouraged to have board members and others on the call who are familiar with the topics on the agenda and who can provide context and clarity.
